Honesty speaks for ItMtt The old parties oppose orgaaitod labor. ; V ? a * I i . ' ' f . Don’t get excited. Truth is coolheaded. Direct legislation is one of the greatest issues. England wants Cleveland to have a third term. Stand up for the truth, and keep in a good humor. Neither one of the old parties is opposed to monopoly. Silver isn’t half as “cheap” as the talk of the goldbugs. Our money should be as sacredly American as our flag. Houses for the homeless means peace, prosperity and patriotism. Remember the Hazard circular, to keep it before the people. “Sound money” causes corn to rot in the field, for lack of purchasers. Neither one of the old parties is opposed to stock and produce gambling. Don’t abuse any man on account of his ignorance. Teach him as a friend. Give all parties proportional representation, according to their strength. The two-hundred cent gold dollar is too expensive for the common people. The more interest the people have to pay, the more prosperous are the money lenders. Now is a good time to keep the office itching politicians of the People’s Party in the rear. The man who has no contempt of »urt now-a-days has also very little patriotism. Neither one of the old parties wants this country to declare its independence of England. The Populist party is the only one that advises the people to read all sides of the issues. The two old parties do not want the people to think, and advises them to let politics alone.

There is a good deal of socialism in the Lord’s prayer; and the golden rule is pure socialism. The Rothschild idea of “saving” this country is to salt it down for the use of the money-lenders. Keep your eye on the “Lone Star” state and you will never lose the trail. Texas Populists are awake. Every man who remains in either of the two old parties helps the goldbugs and bankers rob the people. Neither one of the old parties dares to declare itself openly and radically tn favor of anything whatever. Senator Vest is still being interviewed. His real position on the money question, however, is unknown. Votes keep the two old parties alive, and the two old parties keep the trusts, corporations and combines alive. It is rumored that the Monroe doctrine “in a mild form” has been laid down to England by Secretary Olney. A few people are subverting the objects of this government. Why do the many submit to it? Why? that’s the question. As long as the seat of government remains in Grover Cleveland’s trousers, the people will be sat on by the money power. Abraham Lincoln said: “The battle to-day is between men and money.” It is just the same now as it was in Lincoln’s day. When the banks boycott any money of the government, it is time for the people constituting that government to abolish the banks. ’ The free silver democrats of Nebraska have applied for an injunction against the “dear money” democrats tieing allowed the use of the name democratic. Why are laboring men always the first to starve in time of panic? Seems to us the fellows who never do any pro’ductive work should be the first to run out of bread. If there were offices enough, President Cleveland would soon have the entire 'democratic party converted to his “sound money” views. Every appointment makes a convert. The executive, the judicial and the military departments of our government are now under absolute command of corporate greed. Cleveland, Woods and Gen. Miles, the triumvirate of tyranny, are in the saddle. Democratic papers of the south boast that the “little breeze of Populism” will hot sway the grand old democratic ship one inch from her course. This may be true —since the curse of the democratic party is direct toward its own destruction.
